Bizzare! Only one portal stone which is balancing a massive capstone which is balancing on another smaller capstone! Irelands oddest dolmen by far, and probably one of the best.

Looking like its going to topple over any minute, Aghnacliff Dolmen seems to have balanced like this for 5,000 years even with the later removal of one of the portal stones.

This is probably the best angle, you really have to try and work out whats balancing what.
